I have a lot of digital photos which I would be very sad to loose. I was recommended Amazon S3 as a cheap storage solution and even though it is possible to use https to transfer your data to S3 in a secure way the data itself isn’t encryptet within Amazon. I’m looking for a solution where my photos of my son in the bathtub are secured from all prying eyes including the Amazon tech staff.
At work we are currently in the process of creating a general data hub which is easily expendable and configurable. It’s already in use exchanging EDI messages (EDIFACT) for a supplier on the danish electricity market.
At work I was assigned to package some software to make it easier to distribute and update. One of those software packages was php-gtk which with one patch to the build/configure files now cleanly builds on Ubuntu. You will be able to find the package on my Ubuntu PPA. You will be able to find builds for both 32bit and 64bit platforms.
